FABLAB brings prototyping capability to the community !

FABLAB – the Digital Fabrication Laboratory- is the brainchild of Massachusetts Institute
of Technology (MIT) professor Dr. Neil Gershenfeld. The Center for Bits and Atoms (CBA) at MIT does laboratory research on technologies for personal fabrication and the
FABLAB represents the practical application of that research. Using off-the-shelf, industrial grade fabrication and electronic tools and open-source
software and programs from the CBA’s researchers any location in the world could be a high-tech machine shop.

Take a Prototype to Product and to MarketThe MCC FABLAB is part of a mid-Michigan initiative to promote innovation and entrepreneurship.The Entrepreneurship Team (e-Team) managed by the Flint & Genesee Chamber of Commerce business counseling and development services to help entrepreneurs navigate each
